There were cracks in the door where the light could come through. And you could hear everyone in the hallway, but the beds were comfortable. The towels were amazing and the the hotel room was super cute

Room was large and clean.
I wish there were more to do in walking distance, very limited to only 2 casinos, not even a coffee shop.

I loved the quaintness of the property. The room was perfect. And the shower (I know it's weird) had one of the greatest temperatures and pressure I have had in a hotel

The Property was clean and the room was spacious.
The bathroom needs to be more private. In particular, the toilet room (water closet) needs to have a door and no opening to the sink/shower area.

Everybody, I mean everybody, was as kind and helpful as anyplace I have ever seen. It's too long to write all things, so saying I will be back is my endorsement.
Great team.
